About NYCSEF 2014

The New York City Science and Engineering Fair, the largest high school research competition in NYC, is sponsored by the New York City Department of Education and the City University of New York. Each year, hundreds of students participate from all over the five boroughs. This year’s top awards include scholarships to study at CUNY’s City College of New York and Hunter College as well as an all-expense paid trip to represent NYC at the 2014 Intel ISEF.

President Obama visits the Finals

In 2011, addressing the 191 students participating at the Finals Round, President Obama said, “I want you to know that you are the key to our success. You’re going to be able to find a job because there’s going to be a great advantage for the skills you’re learning. So you should all be extraordinarily proud of the work you’re doing.”For more about his visit, join us on Facebook.
